Answer:

Cilia

Step-by-step explanation:

Some animal-like protists move by using cilia. Cilia are hair-like projections that move with a wave-like pattern. The cilia move like tiny oars to sweep food toward the organism or to move the organism through water. An example of these is the paramecium.
